Who Am I
Who I am and what I am takes a lot of explaining. I am a very complex person. Very few people get me and understand where I come from. I’ve been through a lot in my life that determines who I am today and how I respond to people. A lot of people give up on me because I have such a thick barrier around me. Hopefully in this paper u will understand the real me.
I have been told I am a very caring person and I think that comes from wanting somebody to care about me so I try to return the favor. I do not like to see people in pain so I try to be there for them as much as possible. I sit there and listen to them and it really does not go through one ear and out the other. I do not always have the best advice but sometimes all a person needs is to b heard, To have a voice.
When I was a kid up until I fell in love with what seems to be the only person outside my whole family to understand me I was teased bullied and misunderstood the whole time. I guess that’s why I still have a big wall up in front of me and have major trust issues. Through high school I got better and better at making friends and being more social maybe due to maturity.
Enough about why I am so guarded. I have a wonderful family and friend base which I would not trade for anything in the world. They have been through everything with me and they are the reason I still care. Family is a big part of who I am and what I do and how I act because I am very much influenced by them.
I am a young man who wants to succeed in life and be something. I want to help the youth population that is at risk. I do not really know exactly in what way I will do this

but I do know that I will make a difference in this world in some way. I am not the type of person that wants to just sit around and watch our society deteriorate.
I am a sports junkie and I love hanging out with my friends. They keep me grounded. I would like to think of myself as that same good friend I had. I think my friend are a huge part of who I am.
I am a man who wants and believes that in some way shape or form that he will change the world in a positive way. I think that the world will not change for the good if you just sit there and watch it go by. I would like to see myself mentoring kids and making a difference in a kids life because I think they are a huge key to our future and if u mistreat them and give them no compassion you are only damaging our fute and many generations future.
I am a warm hearted person who cares about every body and their feelings. I think I get that from my mom. I get a lot of my unselfishness from her and I thank her very much for that. I think this world and society lacks respect
